While book clubs can enrich the mind, the Spirituality Reading Club also explores the heart and stretches the spirit. SRC challenges people to reach beyond a surface relationship with God to explore other’s ideas and commentaries on our Christian faith.

SRC members read and study one book per month to strengthen their spirituality and dialogue about the viewpoints of well-known Christian authors. In a group setting, participants will share their thoughts about a book’s topic and answer questions that tie it back to faith, a relationship with God and living in the world today. The Rev. Orrin Halepeska, parochial vicar at CtR, leads the group in discussion. He facilitates deep conversation that allows participants to express their beliefs and find answers to tough questions the books may present.

The club meets at 10 a.m. on Monday and 7 p.m. on Tuesday during the fourth week of every month.
Please read the book before class each month.

To sign up, contact Margaret Carnicle, Director of Family Life, at

In "Saint Francis of Assisi," G. K. Chesterton celebrates one of world’s most beloved saints.

“It is perhaps the chief suggestion of this book that St. Francis walked the world like the Pardon of God. His appearance marked the moment when men could be reconciled not only to God but to nature and, most difficult of all, to themselves. . . . It was in fact his whole function to tell men to start afresh and, in that sense, to tell them to forget.”
